GCF name strong Elite team for Caribbean championships
The Guyana Cycling Federation (GCF) has named a strong Elite Team for the 2015 Elite Caribbean 
Cycling Championships set for the Land of the Flying Fish, Barbados, this weekend, October 17-18.
Michael Anthony, Hamza Eastman, Geron Williams, Alanzo Greaves and Orville Hinds are the male riders with National Female Time Trial and Road Race champion Claire Fraser-Green who is based in the UK is the lone female.
President of the GCF, Horace Burrowes will manage the team that is expected to do well given performances over the past 12 months.
Burrowes noted that this is the best possible team the federation could have named and he is expecting the riders to do well.
The riders will have to fund their own airfare according to Burrowes since the federation is cash strapped.
The Barbados Cycling Union as host will provide accommodation for the 20 countries and over 90 riders that will be participating.
The Time Trials are set for Saturday with the Road Race on Sunday.
The distance for the Women is 86.4km, while the men will battle over 158.4km around the Bushy Park Circuit, 11 times for the men and 6 for the women.
For the event, the Barbados Cycling Union is receiving support from the Pan American Cycling Confederation (COPACI), the International Cycling Union (UCI) and the Caribbean Cycling Federation (CCC).
There will also be a CCC Congress on Sunday with GCF President Borrowes representing Guyana.
